Cannot start KVM

[Kristjan]

Hi.
I updated my Proxmox server. After restarting it I can no longer start my KVM.
I get this two errors:
TASK ERROR: start failed: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.PropertyReadOnly: Cannot set property PIDs, or unknown property.
and
TASK ERROR: start failed: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.PropertyReadOnly: Cannot set property KillMode, or unknown property.
I tried restarting but it didn't help.

Is your system really up to date?

# apt-get update
# apt-get dist-upgrade

 

[Kristjan]

Yes. This started happening after the last update.
I will reinstall proxmox because I'm having some problems with other installed packages.

Hi,

i updated my Proxmox 4.2 (free) installation today and i am unable to start kvm vm's.

The error i get: TASK ERROR: start failed: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.FileNotFound: Failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory

is something wrong with dbus in the latest version?

The error i get: TASK ERROR: start failed: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.FileNotFound: Failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory

apt-get install dbus

The latest ProxMox version requires dbus daemon running for some unknown reason.

That worked. Thank you.

I suffered from this problem when updating the PVE from 6.2 to 6.3-3, when restarting the VMs did not start, I tried to install the dbus, but it did not work.
I ended up seeing that it was just the dbus service that hadn't started, so a simple restart on the dbus solved my problem.

service dbus start
